Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The Court of Appeals ... recognized that although under Article 38.29, supra, 'unadju-dicated criminal offenses are inadmissible for impeachment purposes,' evidence of pending charges is nevertheless admissible ‘under certain circumstances for the limited purpose of showing bias, prejudice, interest, and motive of the witness in testifying as he did.' That certainly is an accurate statement of the rule in this case. Carrillo v. State, 591 S.W.2d 876, 886 (Tex.Cr.App. 1979); Moreno v. State, 587 S.W.2d 405, 409-410 (Tex.Cr.App. 1979); Murphy v. State, 587 S.W.2d 718, 722-723 (Tex.Cr.App. 1979); Hemphill v. State, 634 S.W.2d 78 (Tex.App.—Austin—discretionary review refused).””
